An Ilorin Area Court on Monday dissolved a three-year-old marriage between Taofikat Bello and her husband Jimoh on grounds that the husband talks too much.

Taofikat, 33, a resident of Osere Area, Ilorin, had prayed the court to dissolve her marriage to Jimoh, for ``naturally talking’’ too much.

The petitioner told the court that Jimoh was fond of discussing their family matters with friends and other distant relatives.

“My husband talks too much and does not care who is attentive or not and will keep exposing his family matters to everybody around him,” she said.

The petitioner said their marriage was contracted in 2010 and had produced a three-year-old son, Sheriff.

She further claimed she was the only one responsible for Sheriff's upbringing.

“I want an end to this marriage because my husband cannot keep quiet on his family matters and I dislike people that cannot keep secrets,” she said.

The respondent did not oppose the petition, saying she was free to go.

“I love sharing my problem with others so that I can seek their opinion to solve problems, but my wife thinks we don’t need anybody to survive in life,” Jimoh said.

He prayed the court to grant the prayer of his wife, adding: ``I can’t force myself on her since she wants to go’’.

The presiding Judge, Mr Ibrahim Abdulquadri, dissolved their marriage and issued a certificate of divorce to the plaintiff. (NAN)
